it's funny that efail is a case where the "sophisticated" methods like PGP and S/MIME don't defend against in-transit attacks but the pedestrian email authentication methods (DKIM signatures, STARTTLS+pinning) do

A guy sat next to me on the metro and pulled out a Lumia 1020. When he realised I was using a Windows Phone smartphone too, he gave me an approving nod. This kind of thing used to happen among PowerBook users in the 1990s and 2000s.

It’s too bad. Because no matter how successful Apple is via keeping the status quo and no matter how many times I hear “reasons” as to why there’s no reason to change, it doesn’t really add up. Apple should be *evolving* with its cash.

Yes, but... and I’m going to keep making this case: when you’re sitting on the amount of cash Apple sits on, you begin to wonder about the benefits of these sorts of pathologically margin sensitive moves. https://t.co/kMcQhV0YFN

Not disagreeing. That goes with the territory of what I said about wanting Apple to *commit* to Pencil as nearly non-optional. There are so many ways to improve iOS interaction on a large screen via Pencil, but they have to really believe in it. https://t.co/sB78m7xllJ
